Chapter Six
A startled scream came out when he spoke behind me. His voice was cold, the darkness in it sending a shiver down my back.
“You think I would allow him to touch you.”I spun around, using the door to hold me up. I lick my lips and lift my chin, hoping my voice didn't waver. “You don’t get a say.” Note to self, remember demons can teleport through locked doors.“You’re wrong, little human, you’ve been mine since I tasted your blood on my tongue.” His dark eyes dragged down my body and I repressed another shiver while I stood up straighter.“You mean the night where you then tried to kill me 5 seconds later? If that’s how you treat people, I think I’ll pass.”Caspain stepped closer, moving till he was in front of me and his arm rested above my head. I held my breath, trying to reduce the friction of my chest rising and falling against his. “I’m a patient man, I’ll wait till you accept it.”I raised my hands and pressed against hiRelated chapters
Taming the Demon King Chapter Seven
One glance from a clubgoer, Caspain had me tugged onto his lap body hidden from the rest of the private sectioned lounges above the dance floor. I sat with a stiff back, leaning away from his chest and on the booth as I faced Lust, who sat in the middle of the booth. It left the seat across from Caspain open as we waited for Reno’s arrival. Every brush of his arm as he sipped on his drink and returned it to the table had me jostling on his legs, and I gripped my thighs trying to tuck myself in. He turned his head so he could whisper in my ear, “Relax.” “I didn’t agree to this,” I hiss back at him. Caspain tucked a piece of hair behind my ear, then grasped my chin tugging my face to his. “Do I need to ask Lust for his influence? Or can you put

Caspain gave me a saccharine smile that had goosebumps running up my arms. He shifted me off his lap and faced Reno. “Well, Mr. Alvarez, what do you want in exchange for Kellum’s life?”Reno stopped twisting in watch and turned to Lust, “Are you a part of this bargain as well? Since it was your invitation and we are in your club.”Lust shrugged, “Whatever my brother needs.”The use of the sentiment had Reno tensing and glancing over his shoulder at the man standing behind him. I think he knew this meeting could turn for worse at any given minute and he would be on the losing side. I glanced around looking for his own men, knowing he wouldn’t have come alone. With a furrowed brow, I leaned back into Caspain. “Where are his men?”Caspain rubs a thumb along my wrist but doesn't say anything to my question and a sense of dread starts to form inside.“I’ll take Rae and the promise of no retaliation with his club as collateral. And I’ll have you brought to Kell’s location.” Reno says, glan
Taming the Demon King Chapter One
Grumbling, I continue to use the small shovel to dig a hole into the gravel road. The chill of the night was causing goosebumps to run up my arms, even with the leather jacket. This was stupid. I felt like an idiot.There was no way that a simple google search would tell me how to summon a demon. But I was still out here digging a hole. I ran over the mental checklist again. Find a crossroads. Check. Get a steel box. Check. Put my most prized possession in said box. Check. Bury box exactly in the middle of the two roads. In progress. I sigh as I continue to dig a hole deep enough for my box.What else do I have to do with my Friday night anyway?What harm was there in trying?Dad was out of options and I knew what the next step was if he got truly desperate. He already did it to my sister, what was stopping him from doing the same to me. “Fuck!” I look down where I cut myself with the shovel, my blood drippi
Taming the Demon King Chapter Two
I unlock the door to my apartment, swinging it open and stepping inside. It’s a small studio that I converted into a one-bedroom by separating my bed area with makeshift walls. The rest of the room is all wide open with a tiny kitchen and a small table I eat at.“Welcome to mi casa.”He’s standing frozen at the doorway with a grimace. “This is pathetic.”My temper rises again, but I close my eyes and count down. I plaster a fake smile on my face and cross my arms. “At what point during my desperate summoning of a demon did you get the impression I came from a lavish lifestyle.”He blinks at me and I see the clench of his jaw. I raise my eyebro
Taming the Demon King Chapter Three
Pounding on the door pulls me out of a groggy sleep and I blink my eyes open. I turn towards the demon sitting in the chair, I half expected to not be there. That last night was a crazy dream but he’s still as a statue almost like he didn't move all night, his eyes on me.“Want to get that?” I ask him“No.”I groan, pushing to sit up. “Why not?”“I don’t open doors.”Raising an eyebrow, I scoff. “Because answering summons on random roads in the middle of the night is so dignified.”His eyes narrow to slits and I can’t wip
Taming the Demon King Chapter Four
I bend over grabbing my knees, gasping for breath while trying not to vomit. The world is still spinning, but I’m trying to focus my attention on one crack in the sidewalk.“What.. the.. fuck.. was.. that..” I say in between dry heaving.“I guess humans do not travel well after all,” Caspain says, sounding amused.I wave a middle finger in his direction and a small chuckle has me clenching my thighs. Why is he so hot for a demon. And why is he so goddamn annoying.Taking a deep breath, I stand up straighter and squint to take a look around the street.“We’re still in Chicago.”&nb
Taming the Demon King Chapter Five
“My soul?”Lust nods excitedly. “Yes, her soul is quite beautiful.”“Don’t look at it,” Caspain growls in a low dark tone, they exchange looks before Lust wipes his mouth, hiding his amusement. I watch this with a slight concern that they can so easily see my soul.Lust waves a hand and drinks appear on the coffee table in front of us, some sandwiches following soon after. “So, tell me about this contract, Rae.”Caspain makes another noise in the back of his throat and I smack his chest as I go to sit next to Lust. “Stop it. I’m not vibing with these possessive behaviors you are starting to show. You’re only here to fulfill a contract.” I
